Explanation:

Liberia is a country on the West African Coast. The country began as a settlement of the American Colonization Society, which supported the idea of African Americans relocating to Africa in order to have better chances for prosperity. The country was the first African republic to gain independence. It was also free of colonial rule throughout the "Scramble for Africa" that colonized most countries in Africa.
